Cant Clough is just over the watershed from Upper Gorple Reservoir.
The gull comes in about 4pm and roosts alone an the otherwise deserted reservoir.
It's quite confiding, and appears to be a small individual, maybe slightly smaller than the average Lesser Black-backed.
With thanks to Ian C. for the tip-off.
A great Bird,it just shows what can turn up,incidently 7 Whooper Swans were on Lower Gorlple Res on 29 02 16 also.
